Sault Police stopped 34-year-old suspect on Carmen's Way in the winter of 2022
Jordan Porter was nabbed with narcotics when city cops caught him cycling on Carmen's Way without lights on a winter night two years ago.
Porter was found with a large bag of a white powder in his jacket pocket, as well as a scale, two large bags of fentanyl and a small bag of pills. The prosecutors and defence lawyer Ken Walker jointly recommended a sentence of time served: the equivalent of 936 days for the time Porter spent in custody between October 2022 and July of this year.Fentanyl and meth "are very dangerous and addictive drugs," she said, and fentanyl is causing deaths at a high rate in our community.
Walker told the court his client has been "labouring" with an addiction for some time and was dealing to support his habit.When he imposed the sentence, Kwolek noted Porter's "fairly lengthy record," which includes convictions for financial crimes, carrying a concealed weapon, possession of a firearm and breaching release orders.
